MobileMe Publish Error

Desperately need help here... I'm using mobileme to host my website that i create using iWeb 09 and i use my personal domain as well. It was just fine. Until a couple of days ago, i was learning how to use RapidWeaver to create my website and publish it into my mobileme account. It worked fine as well.
This morning, I decided just wanna stick with iWeb, so i tried to Re-publish the entire site. It kept saying *Publish Error* +iWeb couldn’t publish to MobileMe. The MobileMe servers are busy. Please try again in a few minutes.+ .
I went to my account in mobileme and saw this RapidWeaver pages that i have uploaded, I thought may be that's why the problem exist, so i deleted all of it.
Tried to re-publish it again from iWeb, nothing changed, still got the error message.
I'm a member in mobileme family pack. I deleted my account, and re-add a new account with the same name as I used, and tried to re-publish my website, and it didn't work either.
Anyone can help me here?? Thanks in advance..

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
1 - go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
2 - login with a bogus username and password. This clears the caches.
3 - login with your correct username and password.
4 - launch iWeb and try publishing again.

  • IWeb Publish Error - A lock occurred while publishing to MobileMe

    iWeb Publish Error - A lock occurred while publishing to MobileMe. Try publishing again later.
    I've tried all articles so far on apple support site. Tried on new OS user and publishing to folder and publishing a test page. I still get an error. Publishing to folder works fine, its just when I publish to MobileMe. Also tried different network and restarting computer etc.
    Help me. Thanks.

    If you are logged in OK maybe you should look at your Keychain.
    Finer/Go/Utilities/Keychain Access.app.
    Try "Keychain First Aid" from the "Keychain Access" drop down menu.

  • Cannot publish to MobileMe.   Error says, "iWeb couldn't connect to MobileMe. Make sure your Internet connection works and try again."  Connection is OK!

    My site will publish to a folder, but will not publish to MobileMe.   Error says, “iWeb couldn’t connect to MobileMe. Make sure your Internet connection works and try again.“  Connection is OK!

    Thank you Alancito for your reply.  The recent post you suggested was not necessary because another of your suggestions did the trick:  https://discussions.apple.com/message/11503337#11503337  In effect, it seems to have reestablished my connection to my MobileMe account, and my iWeb site now publishes on MobileMe. 
    My next step will be to transfer my iWeb site to another Personal Web Provider when MobileMe ceases to exist next June.  Any recommendations for a simple PWP?
    Thank you very much,

  • Publish error on iweb 3.0.1

  • Iweb/ computer to computer transfer/ publish error

    Problem with iWeb 09 and in particular publishing on my Blog.
    Today I decided to try and shift my iWeb site to a 2nd computer, from my iMac to my MacBook. Both have been installed up to date with all the latest software updates.
    I moved the domain.sites2 file as suggested on iwebfaqs website, by flashdrive and put it into the MacBook. My page and all its content from the old machine transferred as would be expected without any glitches. However, when I have tried to publish a new article on my blog on the iWeb site, the first attempt for some reason uploaded without a problem. The second time however, I tried just a minor tweak and it came up with publish error an unknown error has occured.
    I attempted several times using the regular methods yet nothing has changed. I have deleted domain and tried again. I am running out of ideas. Any suggestions?

    If you are publishing to MobileMe there are problems with it today apparently.

  • I also encounter a publishing error

    The past few days, I have encountered a publishing error. I am using iWeb 1.1. When I publish, the content online does update, but iWeb gives an error message at the end and acts as if nothing has published. To update anything I have to update everything now (a time-consuming experience), as any change in iWeb does not register as published even though it does change online. I published to a folder without a problem. I deleted my sites from MobileMe and republished, but that had no effect.
    Late tonight I got an email saying that I was getting an additional 60 days of MobileMe service in addition to the 30 days they gave me last month due to the rocky start. Could this publishing error relate to that?
    Up until Friday (4 days ago) I had no problems with publish, except for last month after the big switch over to MobileMe. Is anyone else experiencing a publishing error where their sites actually update, but iWeb just does not want to recognize it?

  • Sudden publishing error on iWeb 06

    I have updated my site since MobileMe kicked in, no problem. Now I'm getting this Publishing Error since I upgraded to 10.4.11:
    "Can’t create the file “shapeimage3_link0.png.” The disk may be damaged, full, or you may not have sufficient access privileges."
    I'm lost here...

    Deborah ~ Your Public Profile settings in this thread imply you have downgraded from Mac OS X (10.4.11) to Mac OS X (10.4.7). On a Mac, MobileMe requires the latest versions of Mac OS X 10.5 or Mac OS X 10.4.11 (use Software Update to update to the latest versions). See this _.Mac to MobileMe transition FAQ_. And if you're not on the latest version of iWeb 1.x, Software Update should offer you its latest update also.
    After updating to 10.4.11 (again!) and the latest iWeb 1.x, you may still see references to .Mac — particularly in System Preferences. According to the FAQ above, this is normal for Mac OS X 10.4.11. You can continue to use .Mac preferences.

    Will it automatically publish to MobileMe since .Mac is now gone?
    Yes — because .Mac doesn't exist to publish to. (Although MobileMe could well be on the same physical servers as .Mac was on.)
    Deborah Zari wrote:
    At some point I need to upgrade to '08, but I'll need to find complete, clear instructions on how to go about it.
    Once you've installed iWeb '08 and opened it, you'll be invited to make your existing site (domain file) compatible with it. From there on, the short conversion process is automatic. You may find some differences in how your site looks in iWeb '08 (see here and here). If so, if you've made a backup copy of iWeb's key domain file and iWeb '06, you can continue to use them until you have resolved the issues with iWeb '08. And you'll want to preserve website comments when upgrading from iWeb 1.x to 2.0 — see here.

    This is a band's website that I can't afford to lose.
    See this Apple doc on How to back up MobileMe data. And besides the backup suggestions there, the free SuperDuper! can also be used to regularly create a bootable clone of your entire internal HD on an external drive:
    http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper
    ...then if your internal HD fails, you re-boot with the Option key held down. Your Mac will start into Startup Manager, where you can use the arrow keys to select a Mac OS X volume to start from, i.e. your bootable clone from SuperDuper!. Besides the advantage of not losing any valuable data, you can continue working and use Disk Utility app in Applications > Utilities to diagnose the problem.
    And, as mentioned before, this free SMARTReporter may give you an early warning of impending hard drive failure:

  • Publishing Errors every time

    Ok, I've had it. I have tried to set up a new theme for my site to hopefully overwrite all material on MobileMe, I am currently in the process of erasing all my site data on the remote disk, and still, when I publish, it goes for a long time, and then, it says there is a publishing error. Every time.
    PLEASE SOMEONE HELP.
    Mark

    Mark:
    Have you tried publishing to a folder on your Desktop first to see if that will work? If it does then you've narrowed down the problem to the transfer to the server. If it doesn't then you may have a problem with some of the source material.
    If publishing to a folder works OK delete the files from your iDisk/Web/Sites folder and try a Publish All to MobileMe.

  • Publish Error but no specifics to indicate what the problem is

    I have been working on my webpage all night - adding pages, editing, etc and when I went to publish the changes after saving, it took an incredibly long time (creating pages that did not have any changes for one) and at the end it gives me a lame "Publish Error" - there was a problem publishing to .Mac." But nothing to explain why there was a problem.
    I have tried deleting pages that were newly created in case there was too much new material all at once but nothing has worked.
    Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks.

  • Publishing Error - Temporary Web Resources

    I keep getting this Publish Error :
    An error occured while publishing file "/Web/Temporary Web Resources/". Try publishing again later.
    I have written to "Mac Support" and did everything they told me to do. My connection is fine. I can publish to a folder. I have deleted the mac.com cookies and emptied the brower's cache of temporary Internet-related files.
    I put a copy of my "domain" file in my public folder so they can look at it and they have not gotten back to me since 8/31. I have sent two follow-up notes to them and have not heard anything. I even sent a feedback note to them.
    Does anyone know how to solve this error message? I keep publishing over and over again hoping the problem will go away, but keep getting the same message.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Publishing iweb site to mobile me. says publish error....

    I made two sites on iweb 08 on my old computer and brought the domain file over to my new computer with iweb 09. I updated all the software and etc. And it will not let me publish. It says there is a "Publish Error: Cannot connect to mobileme, check internet connection." I have been on Apple support chat all day troubleshooting different things and nothing has worked. Talked to three different people. The last person then refereed me to apple care...which I do not have and will have to pay for...so does anyone know what i can do to get this to publish??

  • IWeb 08 won't publish my site when "private" - "Publish Error"

    I have created two sites in iWeb. The first is for general viewing, the second (still under construction) is to be restricted by "Make my published site private" username and password. I can publish both sites as "open sites" without problem, but when I try to publish after I check the privacy box for Site 2, I get a "Publish Error" during the publishing process. Any thoughts appreciated.

  • Publish Error after copying domain file from one mac to another

    Hello there,
    so here is the problem: I have had iweb installed on a MBP, and a website up and running. Now that I just bought an iMac I wanted to transfer all the iWeb over to the iMac and make it the main machine. I was doing all the transfer work manually rather than using the migration assistant or time machine.
    I have copied the domain file in the iWeb directory over to the iMac. iWeb starts and displays all the pages and sites normally, but when I try to publish I get the " Publish Error. An unknown error occurred" message.
    On the MBP everything was/is working normally.
    I have tried to copy the same file again, no change. I have deleted the preference file, no change.
    I have tried publishing to a local folder, and get the same error message.
    Does anybody have an idea how to get this fixed? I browsed through the discussions here but couldn't find anything regarding this specific issue.
    cheers
    grani

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
    1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
    3 - reboot.
    4 - launch iWeb and try to publish.
    If that doesn't help continue:
    5 - move the domain file from your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    6 - launch iWeb, create a new test site and save.
    7 - go to the your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    8 - move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    9 - launch iWeb and try again.
